Take time to take one extra look,

This is one to share with non riders - Surrey Police are asking road users to take one extra look . Taking just one extra look at a junction could save a life. That is the vital messaging Surrey Police is highlighting this summer during the national Two-Wheel campaign (3-16 June).

The Force is asking all road users to take responsibility to look out for each other and be vigilant while out and about, taking that important extra moment to watch out for motorcyclists.

Research shows that motorcyclists feature disproportionately in road collisions in the UK, with the majority of these happening at junctions and many preventable if more time was taken. National data from the Department for Transport and the National Road Traffic Census also reveals that the most common factor in fatal or serious collisions is drivers or riders not looking properly. 

The Force is on a mission to crack down on the number of killed or seriously injured motorcyclists. Throughout June, there will be increased presence on Surrey roads to catch drivers and riders acting irresponsibly, in a bid to keep everyone safe.

 As part of Surrey Police’s approach to tackling these road safety issues, the Force is launching their #OneExtraLook motorcycle campaign video, coinciding with the national Two-Wheel operation.

The message is one that applies countrywide - share the video with your rider and non-rider friends
